I gave a really nice Beaver Rockwell table saw away this afternoon. I have two of them and I need the space more than the money. This is a nice vintage table saw made in CANADA.
the contractor who will be renovating my shop was here to look at the original drawings of the shop. He will be applying to the city for a renovation permit based on these city approved drawings from 1990. The shop was built with a special permit from the board of variance. The board of variance allowed 865 square feet. 400 square feet was the "new maximum in 1990.
After the ceiling is raised with cathedral (scissor) trusses, I will gain another three feet at the highest point. Simple measurements suggest there will be just over six feet of working space under a four post BENDPAC

The permit delay with the city could be as little as a few days to three months. I am hoping for the longer time. My son had agreed to help with preparing the space for the contactor and crew.
I will be using the delivery and install service for the hoist. The cost is a little over $500usd. When the crew leaves, the hoist will be working and certified. The Ford goes up and our L110 build goes under the '40.
